Before we settled in Eureka Springs in late April, we seemed to be bouncing from repair to repair and getting familiar with "free" accommodations at the repair facility. Whether it was Jacksonville, Charlotte, Gaffney, Mountain Home or Searcy we met some wonderful and helpful people who were able to get us fixed and back on the road. Our return to Searcy is due to a leaky window and also to have two more windows defogged. Two other couples are having their vehicles repaired and it has been fun to share experiences not only of our travels on the road, but our travels through life.
Our trip from Eureka Springs yesterday was our first time on the road in the motor home since April and it took time to get "road ready" and it was different pumping and paying for diesel as opposed to filling golf carts, tour busses, lawn mowers, work pickups, leaf blowers, tractors, a bulldozer and other Passion Play equipment. It was fun being on the road and seeing the beautiful Arkansas countryside. It seems strange to be behind a shop again, not in our familiar spot with the crickets, coyotes and chiggers. But, we are blessed beyond measure with the freedom we have been given and the ability to go where we choose and serve as God calls us. The folks here in Searcy remembered us and greeted us as old friends. If we're not repaired today, we will probably stay for Ron's bluegrass band performance tomorrow night. We enjoyed hearing them in Mountain View when we left here the last time, and it would be great to hear them again. But each day brings what it does, and as the Experiencing God devotional today said, God provides our daily bread and that is what we should concentrate on and leave tomorrow and beyond in His hands for His will and His way.
God provides, asks us to glorify Him with our lives and tell others about Him and the life we have and the hope we rest in for life beyond the now. Thank You, Lord. We are abundantly blessed and exceedingly grateful.
